Olaug Bollestad apologizes for KrF’s treatment of homosexuals – news Møre og Romsdal – Local news, TV and radio

In an interview with the podcast “Greatest of all? Conversations about faith and orientation”, says KrF leader Olaug Bollestad, who gets sad when she thinks about how gay people have been treated by the party. – I can’t help but say sorry. I just think it’s sad, says Bollestad. According to VG, the party leader apologizes for the fact that people have not felt that there has been a place for them in KrF, and refers to the treatment of the youth party KrFU’s gay leader who resigned in the 1990s. The rights of homosexuals have been a contentious issue in the party on several occasions, including in 2018 when it caused strong reactions that family policy spokesman Geir Jørgen Bekkevold ordained a lesbian couple as priests. – I sometimes think that Our Lord shakes the head of his ground crew on earth. We make God less generous than he is – often the answer is yes and no, says Bollestad in the podcast. She wants a party where everyone is welcome.
